Roulade of Chicken Breast w/ Shaved Country Ham, Organic Goat's Cheese, and Baby Spinach

Serves 4

  • 4 - Free Range-Organic-Local Chicken Breasts, boneless and skinless
  • 4 Cups Cleaned Organic Baby Spinach

Season flattened chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste and lay slices of ham, then spinach, then the goat's cheese onto the seasoned chicken breast and roll like a cigar and stick with the wooden skewers.  Repeat until all 4 breasts are seasoned, rolled, and placed on the skewer, each holding the other in place from unrolling.

Tennessee has a rich history in agriculture, with many families starting a garden as a means to put food on the table. this is the case for Wendy Williams who, along with her daughters, have taken a small garden and grown it into a business venture with 3 Sisters Farm.  Not only is Williams teaching her daughters the importance of hardwork and dedication, but she hopes that one day they will be able to make a living out of the farm.
